But I've got to agree with Jarred on this one!! Victory stands over all!! Rich Thanks Rich but I didn't put this poll together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Charvel Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Victory, close seconds included Accept, PC69 and Frontline, but damned if I don't love Victory. Probably one of my favorite bands I never knew about until Napster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blindjester Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 I went with Jaded Heart, but almost tied for first were Bonfire, Fronrline, Casanova and the Scorps. Great Poll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighNDryRulz Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 PC 69, definitely!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swazi Posted January 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Is this it ??? Scorpions are the very best german Band ?? Come on, guys & girls !! This can't be true !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Is this it ??? Scorpions are the very best german Band ?? Come on, guys & girls !! This can't be true !!! You serious??? That is just disrespectful to the excellent bands on that list! Who the hell is voting for the Scorpions... I don't think anyone's admitted it yet, have they? No offence to fans, decent band IMO... but so many others are SO much better it's not funny. I want to say IMO, but seriously guys... it's a freakin' fact.

shadowman Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Well, all the credit for the Scorpions (their live album Tokyo Tapes is one of the best albums of that time) but this comes a bit as a shock to me as well... Thank God Accept scores high too. I had the great luck to see Accept at their peak (just after the release of Restless and Wild) ('82, '83...) and this must have been one of the most energetic live gigs I have ever seen... That Udo Dirkschneider must have been born on a stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I have to admit, I'd take The Scorpions over Accept by 100 times over. Oh well, I guess I just suck. To me, they'd both be in my bottom 5 from this list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighNDryRulz Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Although I voted for PC69, the Scorps are probably my second favorite from this list. Tons of good-great bands here, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, they'd both be in my bottom 5 from this list. Strange .... Have you listened to Restless and Wild, Accept's masterpiece ? If you may have listened to everything that came after that album I cannot disagree with you... Some serious crap in there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighNDryRulz Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 I think some people just do not like UDO's voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jez Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 'Breaker' is pretty cool as well as 'Restless And Wild'. I'll pass on the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Freddy Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 As far as Accept goes, everything up to METAL HEART is pure gold. It gets a little "iffy" from then on. The Udo-less EAT THE HEAT has its moments, as does the OBJECTION OVERRULED reunion album, but that's about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faust Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Is this it ??? Scorpions are the very best german Band ?? Come on, guys & girls !! This can't be true !!! I've never liked Scorpions because of Klaus Meine. But I like their album "Savage Amusement". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 The only Accept album I still own is 'Eat the heat' because I quite like David Reece and it's a pretty cool disc. I've owned many others, but cannot handle those vocals at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 Earlier Scorps stuff I really like - 'Lovedrive' is a classic and 'Animal Magnetism' & 'Blackout' are pretty damned good as well. The rest is a little patchy, but they have definately released some quality stuff over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aXe mAn Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 I'm actually giving this one to Bonfire! They are EXTREMELY underrated. Accept, Doro, Warlock, Casanova and the Scorpions would follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
